Virginia trails at the half

The way this game started, you would never have expected Virginia to be down by three at the half. The Cavs, who trail 31-28, came out smoking, hitting four of their first five shots.
But then for some reason, Coach Dave Leitao started emptying his bench…Will Harris, Solomon Tat, Jamil Tucker. I think the team lost some of its continuity. By the time Leitao came back to his starters, FSU had found its groove.
The lowlight of the first half for Virginia was Mike Scott’s missed dunk. The freshman was all alone on the fastbreak and totally blew a jam.
That fired up these FSU fans.
Let’s see how the Cavs respond in the second half.
